Pt: A primavera na Amazônia é mágica.
En: Spring in the AmazĂ´nia is magical.
Pt: As folhas brilhavam com a luz do sol que as atravessava.

Pt: A lĂngua era uma barreira.
En: The language was a barrier.
Pt: Muitas vezes nĂŁo conseguia expressar o que sentia.
En: Often, he couldn't express what he felt.

En: He was afraid of not being understood.

En: But Mariana, patiently, helped him.
Pt: Mostrava-lhe plantas medicinais e contava histĂłrias de seus antepassados.
En: She showed him medicinal plants and told stories of her ancestors.
Pt: Um dia, LuĂs decidiu participar de um ritual tradicional.
En: One day, LuĂs decided to participate in a traditional ritual.
Pt: Naquela noite, ao redor da fogueira, os membros da comunidade cantaram e dançaram.
En: That night, around the fire, the community members sang and danced.

En: Mariana began to not
